Avengers Academy

Highly enjoyed #3. McKone is doing the best work of his career at the moment, IMO. The scene with Valkyrie was great, as was Ghost's rant. But for me, the best bit was Reptyl going fanboy on Juggernaut.

Apparently. The Ant-Man & Wasp mini is being touted as Hank's last outing as Wasp. I think that Gage has a point about Giant-Man being his most iconic persona, in that alternate reality appearances he's most usually seen as GM.

#8 was well done as usual. As far as I know, this is the first time McKone has had a full issue inked by Rebecca Buchman, and it's quite possibly the best his art has looked, IMO. Gage excels at character work like always. I'm psyched about him writing Taskmaster again next issue.

One minor possible gripe, though. Is it me, or is the pic of Reptil on the "Previously" page look like it's channeling that werewolf kid from Twilight?
